Memphis May Fire - The Reality

iTUNES: smarturl.it/mmf...
MERCH: riserecords.mer...
These streets are crowded with cowards disguised as men.
They are paying no consequence for their actions,
So we'll all give in.
I say the same things
Over and over and over again,
But you act like you've never heard them.
We were created to set an example.
So what is this, what is this?
This is the same old story,
This is the same old scene.
We're living our lives right out of a magazine,
I guess we'll never know!
Have we gone from little to less,
To nothing at all, nothing at all?
It seems like every soul
Has been sold for a dollar or less.
So I guess we'll never know
How good it could have been.
How good it could have been!
Savor every breath
That enters your lungs,
I promise it won't last forever.
And by the time you realize
You were wrong, you'll be far gone.
Savor every breath
That enters your lungs,
I promise it won't last forever.
And by the time you realize
You were wrong, you'll be far gone!
Follow me or back out now.
Follow me with all your heart
Or back out, back out now!
We all swim in a sea of pride,
Where character is rare.
(Where character is rare)
With every passing day,
It only gets worse
And no one seems to care.
We all die wondering what if I-
What if I would have tried?
And while you're begging for life on you knees,
You'll realize you were never happy!
Have we gone from little to less,
To nothing at all, nothing at all?
It seems like every soul
Has been sold for a dollar or less.
I guess we'll never know
How good it could have been.
The clouds begin to move in rhythm,
There is a storm in the sky.
I will cause a disaster,
Create an earthquake
And watch as you shake.
I will cause a disaster,
Watch as you shake!
We all die wondering what if I-
What if I would have tried?
What if I would have tried?
I guess we'll never know!
It seems like every soul
Has been sold for a dollar or less.
I guess we'll never know
How good it could have been.
How good it could have been!

[@manuinjapan]

this is and will always be their best album. It's THAT good

[@joedubz1419]

João Cota Ha, "good" would be quite the understatement, if you ask me! This shit is on a whole other 'nother level, I only first heard it like 2 weeks ago and I've prob listened to it like 3x daily since then! Which for me is saying quite a lot :)

[@joncanedo705]

João Cota I would say this is their second best album, to me first place got to Sleep Walking.

[@manuinjapan]

Joe Willard huh? I didn't say the album was good. I said it was THAT good to the point of being their best album forever. Where's the understatement?

[@arrowlesskneee]

+Joe Willard Also....coming from a guy who discovered them 2 weeks ago you speak about being a real fan, goddamn tourists xD

[@Idktbh843]

facts

[@evanhelmkay2490]

I'm a simple man. I see "The Reality" and listen for a month straight. The lyrics convict my soul. God bless this band.

[@ASpieth19]

This will always be my favourite MMF Song.

[@gratiszebs2890]

same

[@kylefinn8136]

Agreed

[@diskyanendar4672]

ASpieth19 deal

[@MrEvldreamr]

yusuke!!

[@Spikerx]

100%

[@TheMusiicAddiction]

This song is just a masterpiece. "We all die wondering what if I, what if I would of tried." "Savor every breath that enters your lungs. I promise it wont last forever."

[@Rxsouthern]

TheMusiicAddiction So deep lol

[@whogoatstudio2477]

its about to be 9 years now still gives me goosebumps

[@kirarobson841]

MMF writes such good lyrics it gives me goosebumps.

[@prometeo2310]

Such an underrated song :(

[@peaceasyx]

this entire album. every song is underrated besides the sinner

[@gianmarcogreco9129]

Dude, I can't even find a single live performance of this song! It's my favorite one! I only saw like 3 covers total. Why is it so underrated!?

[@EmeraldSogeking]

The Haunted was pretty popular too

[@cribbles3476]

13 years ago this album dropped. Nothing has ever compared, the synergy and tempo are absolutely consistent throughout the album.

[@soupzilla6778]

One of the best albums of all time!

[@packerman7410]

It was lightning in a bottle man. Nothing like it has been released by mmf since

[@naomirayo3870]

I used to listen to this all the time.

[@TundraCH]

Have we gone from little to less, To nothing at all, nothing at all! Fucking LOVE this chorus so much

[@jennamarie2207]

I miss good music like this honestly.

[@Derp009]

I love this song to death. Matty sings about everyone in the scene selling their soul to make it but their life is a lot darker from it.. Meanwhile he doesn't and achieves success and fame and lives the life they are but without the darkness. This band teaches me so many things.

[@MrMetallover123]

me to men,MMF few listeners do not pay attention to the lyrics, it is more that they want you to catch WHAT they spend

[@snoogans2891]

Nothing like coming back to an album you loved after a while. Dopamine shudders for days

[@miriamflores9070]

I love this song it starts my day every morning for school.

[@goldminer512]

i feel this song... every strum, every snare, every lyrics... i can feel it flowing through my veins... i love this song,

[@peashooter96]

I really can't get over how amazing this song is, and how much it relates. I can't even explain.

[@RikkuX10]

This will always be my favorite Memphis may fire song

[@thekidwhowantstosing]

dear who ever owns rise records, i love you

[@minilabyrinth]

3:43 that breakdown...

[@alyssamose9798]

okay my favorite lyric ever comes from this song: "We all swim in a sea of pride, where character is rare."

[@lpsrocks13]

An amazing song by an amazing band

[@zernos3566]

best album ever written

[@ASpieth19]

One of the best songs on the album and by MMF!

[@ASpieth19]

[@bulletformyavengedalexandr9210]

[@alansayavedra3259]

Hola bro . ¿Que es de tu vida actualmente ?.jaja😎

[@Circasurvive1238901]

1:37 . one of the best, and simple breakdowns ever, its just amazing It seems like every soul has beend sold for a dollar or less so, I guess we'll never know how good it could've been (how good it could've been!)

[@jlangphoto]

I could listen to this song all day. "I will cause a disaster create an earthquake and watch as you shake!!!" Unbelievable song! Unbelievable breakdown and the best damn lyrics available

[@EitanLevinzon]

I play the entire album Over and Over and Over Again!

[@exzatggerate]

Memphis May Fire, keep doing what you are doing. Keep helping and changing the lives of people everywhere. Your songs have incredibly deep meaning and it proves what music is supposed to be. Fan for life, Z.

[@logarythm591]

"Hollow" and "Challenger" are fucking best albums. I am listening only those 2 .

[@joselara7851]

This song is a masterpiece

[@xavierking1763]

it everything I love in a song, it's soft, heavy, and Christian!

[@serenadeceli]

With unconditional coming out soon, I decided to come back and listen to some of the songs that got me into this type of music.

[@bretcore]

This band has the most wonderful lyrics...

[@GrungeMadman]

So every time he screams "wondering what if I!!" near the end i get goosebumps!!! anyone else?

[@getmeoutoftamug]

this song hits so hard. this album is one of my all time favorites

[@ANDREWISMUSIC]

It's like when he scream he almost raps. It's amazing

[@ssd1374]

I like where they're going with their music, but they can't completely skip over these kinds of songs.

[@Dubloq]

Un-fucking-believably good song. By far their best album. Challenger after this, then Unconditional is in last place for me. Incredible music they've created. No way to express it in words. Just listen

[@RazorSlitSS]

This has got to have one of the deepest meanings in their songs, which all their songs have deep reasoning just this one... ahhhhh

[@Guitars77OA6]

August Burns Red and Memphis May Fire are equal in awesomeness to me

[@samravenscraft1518]

The Absolute Greatest Album. No DOUBT

[@Ozarkeus]

This song is, in my opinion, probably the best sounding song ive ever heard, and i mean that with all my heart. I just cant keep my composure when listening to it.
